When ISAF pulls out of Afghanistan; US and other NATO nations, there will be a lot of equipment that they will need to return to their home countries. The costs at bring all of this worn down equipment home and refurbishing it will be high.

while some will be destroyed and some will be donated to the ANA, is there any equipment Pakistan should try to seek at a bargain price, that will save ISAF money as well?

Also, with the NATO mission changing from COIN back to dealing with Russia, and the US focusing on China, COIN equipment like MRAPs maybe the mostly likely to stay behind, especially older models not the new MAT-V.

Well Biden has been calling for US bases in Pakistan. Maybe the US will pressure Pakistan to let US forces move some equipment to Pakistan and be stationed at US-operated bases, in case they need to be deployed back into Afghanistan again, or against Iran, or to any other Central Asian Republics states in some future conflict.

that is not happening, they have bases in Oman now and Pakistan is not going to give bases to a hostile nation that will run black-ops like it did before to damage CPEC.

We have enough forces for ourselves to defend our mother land and we don't want to get involve in others wars. We have done enough damage to our economy by fighting US wars so lets put it to bed this few $100 million free bees for the sake of US bases on our soil and its not going to happen again.

THE ONLY THING THAT WILL BE LEFT BEHIND WILL BE ERIC PRINCE AND HIS MERCENARIES.


Garbage will be thrown or sold for pennies to the Afghan Army.Good stuff will be flown to GCC.Heavy stuff can also go via Chabahar, ferried to GCC bases.

Pakistan should get equipments such as tanks(if any), maps/humvees, other important defence equipments.


APCs and MRAPs would probably be the best items to purchase for pennies on the dollar if they become available. Small Drones, Aerostat Ballons, Artillery pieces, perhaps even transport helicopters, Small arms and accessories, as well as C4ISR equipment should all be looked at if they also become available.

Where did you get this bull crap from? Any link?

US withdrew most of its equipment a long time ago, when MRAPs were given to Pakistan a few years ago, that was the time ISAF was getting rid of most of its heavy stuff. Now what remains is for the ANA.

For that, USA must buy fresh ones.
